Chapter 85 I Like Gardenia

Jiang Li turned and left after the other party got on the plane.

When Jiang Li walked to the nearby street and planned to Apparate to Hogwarts, he saw the lilies in the nearby flower shop were blooming beautifully.

She went in and bought a bunch of lilies. After she pushed the door open and left, the clerk chased her out, holding the change in his hand. He looked around with a confused expression.

Why did the person disappear?

"Sif, why isn't Ali with you?"

After the train arrived at Hogwarts, Lily went to the platform and caught up with Snape who was walking in front of her. She asked curiously, "Where did you go during this holiday? My owl couldn't find you."

He looked down at the bracelet on his wrist and frowned slightly.

When he saw the gems on the chain light up, he relaxed a lot and looked at Lily and said, "We went to Paris for the holiday."

“Is there anything fun in Paris?”

"We're not going there to play, we're going to visit an alchemist."

Lily's eyes lit up and she was about to ask for details when she was interrupted.

"Lily!!"

Hearing this noisy voice, Snape couldn't help but feel a little irritated.

Turning around, I saw James swaggering towards me, followed by Sirius, Lupin, and Peter.

When Snape saw these four people, he felt as if hundreds of noisy ducks were quacking in his ears. He subconsciously quickened his pace, not wanting to stay with a few people.

Lily was a step too slow to catch up, and was pulled back by James.

"Lily, you dropped something."

Hearing this, Lily looked down, didn't see anything, and said in confusion: "I didn't lose anything."

"You have!"

James rummaged mysteriously inside his robe, searching for something with difficulty.

Lily leaned over curiously.

Then James saw himself showing a heart shape with his hands from inside his robe.

"You forgot to take my heart with you."

Lily: "..."

"Pfft hahahaha..."

When the people next to him heard this, they laughed out loud.

Lily felt a little embarrassed and quickly ran away.

"Lily, wait for me. My heart is with you."

James said loudly towards Lily's back.

Lily's pace quickened and she ran as fast as she could, fearing that she would be caught up.

Looking at Lily's back, James shook his head lovingly and said to Sirius, "Lily is so shy. She was so happy to hear my love words that she didn't dare to look at me."

"...Is it possible that she felt too embarrassed and ran away?" Sirius replied.

"How can it be embarrassing? That's my love!"

James said in an emotional aria.

Lily must be shy.

The other three: "..."

Sometimes I admire James' self-confidence. At least he never feels inferior.

They all pretended not to know James and quickly slipped into the auditorium.

The senior students had already taken their seats at the long table in the auditorium.

Lily didn't see Jiang Li in the teacher's seat and felt a little disappointed.

I heard that the Defense Against the Dark Arts class changes every year. Jiang Li is not here, and a strange face is sitting in the teacher's seat.

She looked at Snape and saw that he had his eyes lowered, his black hair covering the side of his face. She didn't know what he was thinking, and she couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for him.

At this moment, Snape was fiddling with the gem on the bracelet, on which there was a piece of text.

[Teleported to the wrong place, heading to Hogwarts.]

"Idiot, you can even get this wrong." Snape said softly.

The door of the auditorium was opened, and Professor McGonagall walked in with the new students and began to sort the students into houses.

Just like a year ago, these freshmen were extremely nervous. It was not until they were sorted into different colleges by the Sorting Hat that they began to smile with relief on their faces.

"Regulus Black."

When Professor McGonagall read out this name, many people looked curiously at the boy who had just walked in front of the Sorting Hat, wanting to see if the Black family would produce another Gryffindor.

"Slytherin!"

The Sorting Hat had just been placed on Regulus' head when it loudly announced the result.

Many people showed disappointed expressions, as they thought they could just watch a show.

Regulus glanced at Sirius who was sitting at the Gryffindor table, and saw that he was talking to James next to him and didn't notice him at all. His eyes darkened and he walked towards the Slytherin table.

He sat down opposite Snape and gave him a friendly smile.

Snape raised the corners of his mouth and forced a friendly smile.

The sorting was over, and Dumbledore began to introduce the rules and new professors to the gentlemen.

"Why doesn't Professor Malfoy continue to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts."

James took a sip of pumpkin soup and Peeves' head popped up. He was so scared that he threw the spoon into Lily's plate, splashing soup all over her face.

"James Potter!"

Lily was so angry that she bent the spoon in her hand.

"Next, let us welcome your new alchemy professor, Miss Gardenia Malfoy."

Hearing this name, everyone subconsciously looked towards the teacher's seat.

A cluster of flames blew in from the window, gradually gathered and took shape, transforming into Jiang Li's figure.

Many freshmen had never seen Jiang Li's move before and exclaimed in surprise.

Snape: "..."

No matter how many times he watched it, he would always feel embarrassed by the way Jiang Li appeared.

After the banquet, Lucius took the freshmen to the Slytherin dormitory.

Snape fell a few steps behind because he saw Jiang Li in the corridor.

He walked towards Jiang Li, who was leaning against the window, holding a white lily in her hand. The silver moonlight outside the window fell on her hair.

"Look, this is the gift I brought back for you."

Jiang Li stuffed the lilies into Snape's hands and said with a smile, "I know you like lilies, and I saw a flower shop on the side of the road, so I went in and bought you a bunch."

The lily in my arms exuded a faint fragrance, and there was dew on it, pure white.

Snape's hand holding the bouquet tightened slightly, he looked up at Jiang Li and said slowly: "I don't like lilies, I like gardenias."

Jiang Li:?

The requirements are still too young.

"If you don't like it, give it back to me. I'll ask Mia to go back and pick some gardenias for you, and I'll put this bouquet in my room."

She took the lily back from her hand and held it in her arms.

Snape: "..."

Seeing Snape still standing here, Jiang Li asked in confusion: "Why don't you go back? All the students in your college have left."

"Don't you have anything to say to me?"

Snape held it in for a long time, and finally managed to say this through his teeth, "You should have come back a long time ago. How come you are so late?"

"Something happened on the way. I sent someone to the airport, and when I got back, I didn't have enough time."

Jiang Li plucked a flower and put it in his hair, then asked Snape conceitedly, "Does it look good?"

"It doesn't look good." Snape said reluctantly.

"No vision."

Jiang Li patted Snape's head and said, "Don't pretend. I know you have been completely fascinated by me."

The corners of Snape's mouth twitched. He felt that these narcissistic words were inexplicably familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere before.

"Where did you learn such disgusting words?" he asked Jiang Li.

"I learned it from James." Jiang Li replied with a smile.

"...Are you sick? Why are you imitating that idiot?" Snape said with disgust.

"I think he's quite interesting." Jiang Li looked at Snape and said with a smile, "I think you can learn from him. He is quite popular in the academy."

She rarely saw someone as confident as James, and found it very interesting to watch him tremble every day.

"I would never learn from him even if my brain was full of sphinxes." Snape thought of James and said with an expression of disgust, "You should stay away from him too, or you might be mistaken for a fool."

"The way you two slander each other is exactly the same." Jiang Li sighed.

Snape: "..."

This made him feel sick.

He opened his mouth to say something, but he caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, who immediately grabbed Jiang Li's wrist and said, "Okay, hurry up and leave. I need to go back to the dormitory."

Jiang Li was just wondering when she heard a gentle and low voice calling her.

"Professor Malfoy."

Hearing this voice, Snape's face suddenly looked a little bad.
